I suppose you could call this year's storytelling festival, "Homecoming". After a year's hiatus. the Ojai Storytelling Festival returns with an incredible lineup of acclaimed storytellers and musicians from across the country and around the world. Whether it's a night of hilarious laughter, a journey of imagination, a tale filled with suspense and drama, a program your children will never forget, a ribald night of tales for adults, or a workshop that inspires, the 17th Annual Ojai Storytelling Festival has something for everyone. Come join us for a weekend of riveting tales under the oaks and beneath the stars. It's not just a festival, it's an experience.

“The Ojai festival is to storytelling what Sundance is to film. If it’s rare and magical and quirky… you’ll find it at this wondrous gem of a festival.”

— Carmen Deedy, acclaimed storyteller/author
